You can bet your bottom dollar a lot of rosaries around the world are going to be offered up for Bishop Geoffrey Robinson after some hear the views he expresses in this extended conversation recorded on 8th March 2012 by Dr Ingrid Shafer but only published on YouTube on the weekend just gone. This is one of the frankest interviews yet and this bishop covers much of the ground that many people would like to see openly discussed within their church and free from the threats imposed by the Temple Police elements who believe they alone are the spokespeople for the mind of Almighty God. This is probably the closest many Catholics might ever come to of having a bishop sitting in their own loungeroom answering their questions honestly and openly and without looking over his shoulder to see if he might get into trouble for saying the wrong thing about anything. This is a bishop "speaking from the heart" — "cor ad cor loquitor" as Cardinal Newman used as his motto: "heart speaking to heart"!
